Novel Full Chapter 1661: I trust you.
How much energy does a Lowest Level World has?
It was difficult to answer that question.
Even the Lowest Level World, not only has to create a Protective barrier that protects itself from even the Supreme Level Worlds, it also has to maintain life and distribute ‘potential’ amongst the different species residing in it.
The question changes to how much energy does it take to maintain a ridiculously strong shield for thousands of years and support life of millions, if not billions of beings at the same time.
Not to mention that a percentage of living beings, though small, but still significant enough, would be using more of the World’s energy to get stronger only to later fight amongst themselves or outsiders and perish in the process.
So how much energy is needed to support hundreds of thousands of cultivators, some of whom are strong enough to get recognized even by the Universe?
Would there be an answer to quantify that number?
No.
The amount would be ridiculous, too much for a mortal to comprehend.
The Worlds aren’t said to be the Universe’s strongest creation without a reason, even a Lowest Level World was contained so much energy that even a big Universe couldn’t just ignore it.
This was also the reason why the Universe, which only showed its anger every time Nux severed his wives’ connection with it, decided to make a move when the anomaly took away an entire world away from it.
It was an action that was enough to brand Nux as a ‘threat’.
And right now, Nux was using the energy of the very same World, not one, but two of them, to expand his mind.
Would a normal human survive this?
Never, let alone a Divine Stage Cultivator like Nux, even Aeliana, a Prodigious Primordial would never survive this. Even her father, the strongest being in the Universe, would face some difficulties and wouldn’t have 100% possibility of surviving this either.
And Nux knew it as well.
He also knew that if he was inside the main Universe, he would have died the instant he tried something like that.
Therefore, he decided to use a cheat.
He decided to abuse his status as a God and tackle the problem when he was at his highest strength.
After absorbing two Lowest Level Worlds, his physical strength was off the charts and along with his physical strength, what improved was his regeneration.
Inside his own Universe, Nux was omnipotent, and using this fact to his advantage, he decided to take this risk.
What if his plan fails and he dies in the process?
Well, the Big Lotus shining right under the Sapling would still be there, ready to revive him.
It might not be possible in the Main Universe, but here, it was very much possible. After all, in here, the Lotus represented Life.
So yes, Nux wasn’t just letting his emotions take the best of him and moving recklessly, he had countermeasures if things went south.
Of course, this also didn’t mean that there weren’t consequences for failing. If he fails and the Lotus of Life is forced to use its powers to revive him,
Then the balance breaks.
The Energy Of Destruction, that is being balanced by the Energy of Genesis would get stronger and it might put his entire Universe in chaos.
As to why the Energy of Genesis alone wouldn’t be able to hold on to the Energy of Destruction?
It was because Genesis was also busy healing the Worlds that Nux devoured.
Yes, even if Nux had devoured these worlds, he still left a bit of energy behind so as to not completely destroy these worlds, after all, he still needed ‘Space’ to hold onto Vyriana’s and Riona’s Law.
That was the main reason all of this started in the first place.
“I… I have never seen something like this in my life.”
Felberta, who saw the ridiculous amount of energy constantly entering Nux’s body spoke with an amazed look on her face.
“Have you ever seen a man who has an entirely different Universe inside him before?” Shadow spoke with a playful smile on her face.
Felberta momentarily glanced at Shadow before turning back towards Nux without saying anything.
“You should go.”
Shadow spoke.
Felberta turned towards her again and Shadow continued.
“Evane will take care of Riona, and Lane will be here to keep an eye on me.
So do what Nux told you to do and stop wasting time, we need Amaya, especially now that Riona is unconscious.”
“…”
Felberta narrowed her eyes when she heard those words and Shadow just sighed,
“Yes, I know you are suspicious of me.
Don’t be too surprised,
I have inherited Lane’s memories, remember?
I know you as much as Lane or Skyla does.
It is pointless to try and hide anything from me.”
“You claim to know me as much as Lane and Skyla do, yet you are still asking me not to be suspicious, it is kind of contradictory you know?
Lane or Skyla or should already know that I will always be suspicious of you till I am not.”
“I do not expect you to not be suspicious of me,
I just want you to do what you are supposed to.
I know you are worried about him but your presence here isn’t helping, outside, it would.”
“…I still find it hard to believe that you are Lane’s alter ego.”
“I was one before…”
Shadow answered with an uncertain look on her face.
“What…?”
Felberta narrowed her eyes.
This time, even Lane, who had been silent all this while showed a slight reaction.
After all, it was always the Shadow confidently claiming that she was her Alter Ego or ‘a side she hides from the rest of the world’.
But seeing her answer with so much… uncertainty, Lane couldn’t help but feel strange.
“What do you mean you were before?”
Lane questioned.
“I… am not sure anymore.”
Shadow replied and Lane narrowed her eyes, wanting her to explain further.
“I wouldn’t know all this if I were you…”
Shadow answered, her voice still filled with uncertainty. Clearly, she herself was too shaken to reassure or answer anyone else.
She may have hidden it when she was with Nux since she didn’t want him to worry, not to mention her emotions were truly suppressed when she was with Nux or maybe she was simply too happy to notice it.
However, the instant she found herself alone and noticed Felberta’s emotions, the realization dawned in.
Shadow felt like she betrayed Lane.
And she felt extremely bad about it.
This was the reason she wanted to divert her mind and not think about it for a while.
And Felberta didn’t fail to notice that.
A habit of blaming herself if anything went south.
A habit of not letting others know how she felt and staying silent.
‘She is Lane alright.’
Felberta closed her eyes as she sighed.
All of this was something Lane should do.
Shadow was extremely similar to Lane, they were almost identical if one ignored her outspoken nature, so her words of her being Lane’s Alter Ego weren’t false, or at least they shouldn’t be false unless…
Something changed.
Something that was significant enough to make Shadow doubt even her own self.
Forming a connection with Nux did something to Shadow.
Or maybe…
“You shouldn’t know all that if you were Lane’s Shadow, that is correct.”
Felberta nodded.
Lane and Shadow turned towards her and the Eldraeth continued,
“I don’t think you are a Shadow anymore.
You are more.”
“What does that mean?”
“It means exactly what I said,
You are more than just a shadow now.
First, your existence wasn’t clear.
Yes, you were connected to the Main Universe and you were somewhat recognized by it, but your connection was weak since, well, you shouldn’t exist.
You should be nothing more than Lane’s own mind playing games with her, but you never were that.
Your existence was inexplainable, but now,
It is not.
Nux gave you meaning.
Nux gave you a source.
Unlike the Main Universe, where you could only exist because Lane did, here, you are an independent Individual.
An Administrator.
Someone who would guide Nux and help him get stronger.
Maybe it is the Universe inside Nux, the Universe he created, trying to interact with him through you, and since your connection with the previous Universe was weak and your existence was uncertain.
Nux’s subconscious must have acted because ‘he’ was worried about you and assigned you this role.
“So… all of this happened because Nux wanted to… help me?”
Shadow blinked a few times.
But Nux himself looked confused when all this happened.
“Well, you did say he was a God.
God works in mysterious ways.
Sometimes, so mysterious that even they might not know what is happening.”
Felberta chuckled, reading Shadow’s worries.
“You just need to know that it is Nux’s subconscious acting up, forming a closer connection with you.
Although I am jealous,
For now,
I will do what you told me and take my leave,
I will be leaving him to you, okay?”
Felberta smiled.
The meaning behind her words was simple.
‘I trust you.’
And for some reason, that was all Shadow wanted to hear.
A small smile appeared on her face and,
“Leave him to me.”
She nodded back and Felberta disappeared.
